similar to: Plot ticks and tick labels: thickness, colour?

Hello, A made a xyplot using the lattice library in R (latest version). The publisher of our paper has requested: 1. all tick marks should point inwards instead of outwards. 2. All lines should be thicker (lines, axes, boxes, etc. Everything). Lines is easy...I used: lwd=1.5 but what about the lines of the axes, and the lines that build up the plot itself?....? Any

Hi, I am unable to get the tick marks to appear thicker in plot. I have tried things like par(lw=2) but this only seems to affect other line thicknesses. The use of axes directly fixes the problem because lw = 2 applies to both the axis and the ticks. Is there is way of feeding a single parameter to plot or setting a par parameter to do this? I am using R 1.9.0 on a windows 2000 platform.

Hello! If you run the whole code below, it'll produce a stacked diagram. And it looks good - because the tick-marks are aligned with the grid. However, if I stretch the graph window, grid becomes misaligned with the tickmarks. Or, rather, it seems aligned for the first and the last tick mark, but not for tickmarks in between. Can it be addressed? Thank you! Dimitri ### Creating a data set

I'm trying to find a way to force all the x-axis tick labels to plot, regardless whether or not they overlap or look pretty. V is a factor with, say, 4 levels. A call to plot(V) gives a histogram-like plot, one bar for each level in V. The problem is that all the label names may not be plotted because some of the names are lengthy and would tend to overlap if plotted. I don't care

Hi! (a complete newby, but will not give up easily!) I was wondering if there is any way to decouple the axis and tick mark widths? As I understand they are both controlled by the lwd setting, and cannot be controlled independently? For example I might want to create major and minor ticks, which I now know how to do by superimposing two axes with different at settings, but what if I also wanted

Hello, everybody! I have a code below that creates a data set and then a stacked bar chart based on that data set. No need to look at it - just notice please that my horizontal axis is a date varible (x=my.data$date). I have a question about the last 2 lines of this code: grid(nx=NULL,ny=NULL,col = "lightgray", lty = "dotted",lwd = par("lwd")) axis(1, las = 2) Could

Hi, if I use the xyplot (or levelplot) function (lattice library) with the option axs="i", I have the problem that the tickmarks lie a bit outside the "plot-box". Consider for example: library(lattice) x<-seq(0,1,by=0.01) y<-seq(0,1,by=0.01) xyplot(y~x,type="l",xlim=c(0,1),ylim=c(0,1),scales=list

Hello, I am trying to increase the thickness of the axis in plot() without reverting to the use of paint programs i see posts on that topic for the xyplot function but want to see if i can do it with plot() because i've already setup my graph script using that i thought i could use axis() function and specify lwd="thickness" or lwd.axis= but that does not work like it does for

Thanks Jeff, I attached a file with the program to my earlier email because the posting guide seemed to imply that non-binary attachments would work. But I see that the file was stripped off. I installed the program file on a web site, but when I downloaded it, the line breaks were stripped out. So I've included the program below: ------------------------------------------------------- #

I am bewildered by the behaviour of tickmarks as demonstrated by the following code. (What I'm trying to do is draw a single tick mark extending from the axis all the way down to the tick label, which is two lines from the axis to make sure it doesn't overlap with the ``ordinary'' tick labels.) # Try 1: # Gap between tickmark and label. plot(1:10) axis(side = 1, at = 2.35,

Apologies, basic question on plot. y <- c(-4,3,-2,1); x <- c("time 1", "time 2", "time 3", "time 4"); plot(x,y, type="b"); of course fails. x <- 1:4 makes it succeed, but then I have too many ticks on my X axis. I want exactly 4 tickmarks. It would also be nicer if I could name the ticks. I looked at ?par and Venables&Ripley,

I have a graph plotted in r.The x axis tickmarks are at 0,5,10. I need a graph with resolution of tickmarks at 0.1 interval.When i place tickmarks of 0.1 intervals using the following command axis(1, at=seq(0,5,0.1), cex.axis=0.7, las=2) I only get the tickmarks of 0.1 interval that are very closed placed in the graph.I need to increase the spacing between each tickmark. Please anyone help out

Hi all,, Is it possible to set a thicker line for the box around the plots? (i.e. for the four axes) Something like lwd (lines) but for the box.

Hi Alex, this should be related to the "las" argument of "par()" but actually it does not seem to be parametered in scatterplot3d.

Dear R users, I am encountering a x axis labeling problem on quite basic plots... I use the following code which displays the labels on the x-axis with a 45 degrees angle: p <- plot(myobject1, type="b", col="red",cex=1, lwd=2, axes=FALSE, ann=FALSE, ylim=c(0,70)) title(main="title", font.main=4) axis(side=1, lab=F) text(axTicks(1), par("usr")[3] - 2,

Hi, I would like to rotate the x axis tick labels by 45 degrees. Using the code below, could someone please provide an example? Many Thanks In Advance, Alex library("scatterplot3d") mydf=data.frame(rate=seq(158, 314) ,age=seq(1, 157) ,market_date=seq(as.Date("2000/1/1"), as.Date("2003/1/1"), by="7 days"))

People, I am using the "las=2" parameter to rotate the labels for the X axis ticks but it means that they are almost touching the "xlab" string. I have been messing around with the "mai" paremeter but that doesn't help - is there some way of increasing the space between xlab and the X axis tick labels? Thanks, Phil. -- Philip Rhoades GPO Box 3411 Sydney

While writing a function that includes placing grid lines at the same position as the axis ticks, I found that the axis* functions don't return anything. Thus I have had to copy the appropriate function, removing the call to axis() and adding a line to return the tick positions. Is there a more elegant way to determine the tick positions on an axis? Thanks. Jim (normally bitwrit at
